@bob james said:I'll absolutely be there!!
I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone.I don't drink, so I hope I won't be too much of an anchor on the festivities.
you can keep hold of my phone till the end of the night lol,
my night out/new phone ratio is impressive sometimes I come home without one but more usual it will be missing an important component like a battery, back cover etc lol -
I’ll be there!
I’m looking forward to meeting everyone.
My flight lands in Denver at 10am Tuesday.
Suppose I'll get to the Boulder Bluff Best Western around noon.
Despite what they say about people looking like their pets, my nose is not pink … until I've had a few.

Gee I struggled to find a photo of myself.....all of the kids
Here is me and a mudcrab. I'm on the left.
-
Here is the latest pic of me ,might wear the same T-shirt if the weather permits.
-
I think the eagle looks better, but.....what you see is what you get
And I will be wearing the same shirt
Mateo: My son visited Dubrovnik when he was stationed in Iraq. I can see from your picture that it is as beautiful as he said it was!
-
Right, a bit of progress has been made. Csaba and I have organised the outside patio for the get together AND we have a beautiful hostess by the name of Youngun talked into greeting guests.

Hows the weather? any need for a sweater at night?
-
You know your a day early, right Mike?
People will be arriving tomorrow....is Gaieus just trying to get a head start? -
The weather is fine by my standards. We even had a few drops of rain in Pearle Street today but we were okay as we were under a bar's canopy looking out.
The weather forecast for Wednesday is some thunder storms! So maybe bring a plastic thingie!

Hi All,
Yes, we have been here for a day already pioneering around (Sunday all day being happy hour in the next door pub made it easy).
The weather is just fine. No bloody, steamy and humid heat and the evening (measured till 1 a.m. outside the terrace) was enjoyable.
Need to get some pug converter, be back later.
(Jody Gates saying hi to all)
-
Wife and kids will be traveling with me, but I will try to stop by before going out to dinner with my Boulder relatives.
-
In Sydney, have a 45min delay to LAX. No big deal as I have a few hours wait there. Getting excited!!!
-
hmmm, I'm still at home got two renders to finish (harsh deadline, thanks to basecamp) before I can even start packing.
Client's deadline was Thursday, so mine is Tuesday.
So it's a late night for me.
-

Sorry to be laughing but I thought you only lost or broke phones while drunk... oh wait, were you drunk in the taxi?Glad you guys are starting to filter in. I am excited as well. However my daughter is not. She just cried herself to sleep tonight anticipating my departure. She is a daddy's girl indeed.
So Liam, define hot to you? We have been enduring 95-105 degree weather with humidity to match.
-
hmm maybe it was residual alcohol I had just been to the Notting Hill Carnival a few hours before but i think in was a genuine pocket slip grrr! I was texting my cousin letting him know I had got to the airport and went to get my wallet for the fare put the phone in my little coat pocket with no zip just popped out. Driver has kept it i rang him from gatwick airport, I can pick it up when I get back to England.
Haha hot for me is not hot for you I guess, its just a nice comfortable heat not scorching? You will have to decide for yourself when you arrive.
Seems nice haven't ventured into down town yet -
looks like I'll be joining the group, though maybe sometime a little later. I get in to Denver around 5:40pm. Hopefully I can get up to the fun before 9:00.
-
yeah the turn around time in denver was amazing compared to atlanta I was in the airport and picking up my case in less than 20mins! God links to boulder I got the supershuttle its only $12 straight to Boulder but you can pay $25 to get dropped off anywhere you like. Taxi's quoted me ridiculous prices dont go near them!!
-
Guys, Boarded the plane in LA for Denver and was told to get off due to engine trouble. 2 Hours delayed....
If not sleeping on the flight from AUS was not enough now have to sit around the terminal...I guess it could have been worse; they could have told us mid-flight.
Eric L, I lleft a message on your cell as we were going to try and get a taxi together I think. Dave, not sure how I'm getting to Boulder, maybe a Shuttle or taxi. I have the motel address so I'll fiond my way although not sure what time.
Great start.
-
well hopefully not that long till you get here I found super shuttle to be the best choice if you are on your own $12 to boulder downtown or $25 drop off whereever you want?
Anyway I left my phone in London as some of you know this is the only way I can contact the group grr
, what is the plan for tonight then is it still 5pm onwards? if so I should arrive just about 6pm, looking forward to meeting everybody.
